THE POWERS OF THE TRUSTEES
In speaking OF the schools to-day Commissioner
Weob said that the people seem to believe that
The duties OF the present board OF trustees are
purely nominal and that their opinions do not
always concur with those Of the Commissioners.
Wny," said Mr. webb, II don't believe there
mas been time In the history OF this city when
the the trustees were more in harmony with the Com
missionerS than they are at present. We agree
upon every subject. AS to the extent OF their
powers, gentleman said to me the other day that
when said that the duties Of the board of trus-
tees were advisory used most unfortunate ex-
preston. II you will remember, 1t was in the in
terview with me which appeared in The STAR OF
May 28th."
''What higher function could we have.n inter-
rupted MI. Fish, who was an attentive listener to
Mr. Webbs remarks. "We have all the power we
want. We do not care for any more"
Mt Fish had evidently given expression to Mr.
WebbS opinion, because the latter resumed work
at his disk, and said no more to the reporter.

The Volcanic Eruption I'm Sonora.


WHAT CAPT. CLARENCE DUTTON SAYS ABOUT IT.
"There Is nothing tntrtnstcaily improbable in
these statements" said Capt. Clarence E. Dutton,
U. S. A., chief Of.the bureau OF volcanic geology,
to an Associated Press reporter who called his at
tention to the dispatch announcing great vol
canic eruption in Sonora. ION the contrary, it is
matter of surprise that we have not had some
volcanoes In our own territory within the historic
PERIOD or rather that we have not had more, for it
is now known that Mount Saint Helena, in wash
tngton Territory, was in a state OF activity and
sent out large quantities OF lava and ashes late
as IS43. There have been, beyond doubt, many
volcanic outbreaks within the territory now our
own not further back than few centuries. can
specify from memory, as bearing remarkable evi-
denceS OF recent occurrence, several localities
where violent eruptions have taken place. One is
near Fillmore, In Utah; another at the base of
Mt. Trumbull, on the border OF the Grand Canon;
third near Fort Stanton, New Mexico. near the
Texas line; and another at Grant Station, on the
Atlantic and Pacific Railroad, 60 or 70 miles west
OF Albuquerque. There are many others in South
ern Arizona l have myself seen piece OF lava
in which was embedded q fragment OF Indian pot
terry, showing that the outflow was subsequent to
the occupation OF the country by the Indians; and
two years ago l visited an extinct volcano in
Northern California which was so recent that some
OF the trees killed by the heat had not entirely
rOtted away"
